Re: Rep power

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that. ~ George Carlin

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves Orcs. ~ John Rogers

Re: Rep power

Well, I think that to make it fair to those of us under the middle class line we should have a cutoff somewhere where it goes from a 1:1 trade off to a 100K:1 or something. Just for simplicity we should have the cutoff be somewhere 10-20K above mine.

It just wouldn't be fair to have a flat trade off like that when the little people are taken at the same rate as you top earners.
